Notes

  • Use ripe avocados – They should be soft but not mushy.
  • Toast the bread well – A crunchy base contrasts beautifully with the creamy avocado.
  • Use balsamic glaze for extra flavor – It adds a rich, slightly sweet tanginess.
  • Try roasted tomatoes – For deeper flavor, roast the cherry tomatoes for 10 minutes at 400°F (200°C).
